After getting a sick fish and having him die, no more chain stores for me. I buy all my fish from my LPS "pristine aquariums" at which I have never seen a dead fish (and as a matter of fact where I saw the betta building a nest in his cup ^_^).

My rant: My poor doubletail Richie has been acting lethargic for three days, losing color... I figured it out by putting my hand in the tank.

The water was extremely warm...between the sun and the fact for some reason my heater has been tampered with (SET AT 88 DEGREES!!!) the water was above 100..... I moved my poor baby into a 1.7, took the heater to the other side of the tank and turned it down to 76. -.-
